Very minor spoiler:
There's a skill check to find your way into a building that's basically the point of no return for the ending of the game. It's a Shivers check but you get positive modifiers for each sidequest you've done so you can pass it easily even with zero Shivers if you've engaged with the game at all

And to add: for each of the (few) mandatory skill checks, if you fail them twice, the game will offer you an alternate solution. For that check, if you fail it, do any one thing that would unlock a second roll, and fail that one, you will unlock a sidequest specifically to replace that roll with an easier one using a different stat.

which means he came to that point and just save scummed until he rolled a critical success, because if he had done literally anything to engage with the game or its mechanics, he would not have made that particular remark

i think that got added as part of the major update following DE's runaway success. the boring player played the game at a point where there were a) no achievements and b) the mandatory check "just" had you get dozens of chances to reroll but could technically lock you out permanently from progressing if you rolled snake eyes ten times in a row

its not really a game changer and i kinda preferred the original's way of handling the voice acting.

There's some new content but IDK if it's worth playing a second time for. Only ever played at launch.

I think casting everyone vaguely related to Chapo Trap House isnt a great way to handle voice acting, personally
